Dimitri Mendeleev was inspired primarily by the work of Antoine Lavoisier and his work on writing the first extensive list of known elements. Lavoisier also collaborated in the construction of the metric system and worked to develop a better nomenclature for chemical compounds which parts are still used today.

If a piece of cadmium with a mass of 37.60 g and a temperature of 100.0 oC is dropped into 25.00 cc of water at 23.0 oC, what wi

Answer:

$T_{eq}=28.9\°C$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since it is observed that hot cadmium is placed in cold water, we can infer that the heat released due to the cooling of cadmium is gained by the water and therefore we can write:

$Q_{Cd}+Q_{W}=0$

Thus, we insert mass, specific heat and temperatures to obtain:

$m_{Cd}C_{Cd}(T_{eq}-T_{Cd})+m_{W}C_{W}(T_{eq}-T_{W})=0$

In such a way, since the specific heat of cadmium and water are respectively 0.232 and 4.184 J/(g °C), we can solve for the equilibrium temperature (the final one) as shown below:

$T_{eq}=\frac{m_{Cd}C_{Cd}T_{Cd}+m_{W}C_{W}T_{W}}{m_{Cd}C_{Cd}+m_{W}C_{W}}$

Now, we plug in to obtain:

$T_{eq}=\frac{37.60g*0.232\frac{J}{g\°C}*100.00\°C+25.00g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}*23.0\°C}{37.60g*0.232\frac{J}{g\°C}+25.00g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}}\\\\T_{eq}=28.9\°C$

NOTE: since the density of water is 1g/cc, we infer that 25.00 cc equals 25.00 g.

Best regards!
